Bill:
Normally, at Cornell, we discourage files that are greater than 2GB. The
problem isn’t that DSPace can’t handle it, the problem is in the time in
uploading the file at submission time and downloading by a user. A lot of
times, people’s browsers just time out.
That said, we do have some large files and what I usually do with them is
submit them using the item import application. I upload the file to DSpace
using SFTP (as a background job). Once it’s on the server, I create an import
directory with the Dublin core needed and then run the batch importer.

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Ingesting large data set
I apologize if a similar questuon has been answered in a prior thread.
We have a student needing to submit a 150 GB data set into DSpace. Is this even
possible? Are there any tips or workarounds I should try?
Cheers,
Bill
